Physics REU program at the University of Washington Bothell (UWB)

The Physics REU program at the University of Washington Bothell (UWB) will host undergraduate research students for 10 weeks during the summer to participate in research projects, professional development activities, and an introduction to research-oriented careers in physics and astronomy. Participants will be matched with faculty mentors based on student interests and will join a cohort of students participating in weekly seminars, workshops, and an introduction to research resources and skills. The UWB Physics REU program for the summer of 2021 may be a hybrid of online and on-campus activities, with the option to participate fully online.

Research areas:

• Physics Education Research
• Computational Physics and Astrophysics
• Gravitational Wave Astronomy
• Experimental Condensed Matter Physics
